CONGRESSIONAL.
FRIDAYS PROCEEDINGS.

HoUsg.-Thc conference report on
the electoral count bill was submitted
by Caldwell, of Team, and without de
bate was agreed to.
Half dozen private senate bills
were passed, including one for the re-
lief of sufferers from the wreck of the
steamer Ashuelot.
At the night session the house, after
passing twentv-iour pension bills, at
10 O'Clock adjourned.

made motion to proceed with the
consideration of the conference re-
port and the interstate con merce bill.
Agreed to by vote of 81 TO IL.
Some unimportant routine business
was then ira sacted, after which Hoar
proceeded to oppose the adoption o
the conference report on the interstat
commerce bill.
Sherman believed that bill of the
Importance of the present measure
has never had such general support
among the people in both houses of
congress. The necessity fer its as
sage was great, and made greater by
the recent dec sion of the supreme
court
Edmunds argued in favor of the
conference report.
Aldrich argued against the fourth
section the long and the short hau!
clause, and expressed his profound
conviction that it would prove di,as-
trous to the great interests of the
country. Its rigid enforcement, he
said, would demoralile and cripple
b th in ernal and external commerce.
Local rates could not be greatly low
cred. while through rates would be
advanced The extreme western
states, he thought, would have al the
rate advanced.
Morrill, had reached the conclusion
that il was his duty TO vote Tor the re-
commitlal of the bill. lie was salts
fed that the long and the shot haul
clause would resu { in an increase of
rates for long hauls and possibly for
short hauls also.
Wilson, of Iowa, had found the in
iquilies in the practice of he railroad
companies sufficient to induce him 10
vote for the conference report, and he
had concluded as senator TO give his
vote Tor the measure. which. he be-
lieved, would tend in the direction OF
justice.
Ingalls, characterized the bill ms a

Spooner said that if he fci rs the
senator from Kansas had expressed
himself he could not support the bill:
and If the constructions which that

DECATUR, Jan. l6.--The gold watch
man was in the city yesterday, and
after cxlolling the merits of his goods

was discovered that some had watch
cases but no watch.

The anti-lrolaDl papers first tried
to prejudice ono class against the gov
crnor by saying the knights of La
Dor were for him; then they discov-
cred that railroad men would support
him, aud now they are puzzled. The
"middhmcn," too, arc for John Ire
land-all, not because he is railroad
man, for he mas always opposed rail
way subsidies and special legislation
in their favor; not because he is o
dcmagogue and has endeavored 10
catch the labor influence by circulat-
ing vote catching speeches and circu-
lars among them; nor that he has ever
antagonized either class by unjust or
partial discharge of official relations.
But he is admired and supported by
all classes because of his well known
ability and character and unques-
toned integrity in all the relations Of
life. Dallas county would vote for
him, and the HERALD hopes its repre-
senlalives will do so. The people of
this section will say to Strong, Rugel,
Heath and Terrell, "Well done" when
they have cast their votes for John

The States Lands.

AUSTIN, Jan. 15.-From the reports
Of the land board, land commissioner
and attorney general the following
facts are cleaned. From the report of
the land board il is learned that the
sale of agricultural and pasture lands
since the organization Of the board
(June 10, 1889 we're as follows: Com
mon school. 10000 acres; blind asy-
lum, 28.OO0 acres; deaf and dumb asy-
lum, $4,000 acres; orphan asylum, co.
900 acres; lunatic asylum, 2l,0O0 acres;
university, 1000 acres; total, 81 $4,000
acres. OF these sales about 100000
acres were sold at the
January QS8D session, under COM
petition, before sales were restricted
to settlers, and realized an average
price of 1913 per acre. The balance
of this quantity, 1,9Sl,0O0 acres, was
sold under rules restricting sales TO
settlers, without competition, at So
per acre. There were l65,lS4 acres
forfeited 70 the State for failure to pay
interest for 1885. Forieiturcs for the
year 1884 were few and the board al
lowed the lands 10 go back on the
market. The following embraces the
principal transactions in the lease de-
partment since the act of 1888 went
lnto effect, the first lease being made
at the January, A. ID. 1884, sitting of
the board: Net recei Is from leases,
1921, 1852; balance due by lessees,
$1l7.934S0. The above figures are
to December 81, 1886, and considera-
ole amount of the balance due being
Tor October, November and December
payments, much of ii will be received
during January. Lessees will also be
entitled to credit for a large number
f sections sold out their leases, and
this will further greatly reduce the
amount put down as due and unpaid.
Credit is not given for sections sold AT
the time the sales are made, for the
reason that the board holds that the
lessee remains in possession and re-
mains responsible for the rent until
the purchaser settles in complianc,
with the terms of his purchase. In
large number of cases this proof of
settlement has not yet been furnished,
and credit has consequently not been
given. 1t may also be proper to state
that of the above balance the
sum of $22,26O is due on
leases of public domain in Greer
county. The accounts for amounts
overdue are made out after thirty to
sixty DAYS, aud placed in the hands @
the attorney general Tor collection. a
large number of suits have been
brought and many collections made
through his department. | am also
advised that mnny large amounts
lately falling due are in process of
and will probably be ro-
ucived be ore the meeting of the
legislature.

The HERALD has always favored fair
compensation in order to the better

branch is certainly not one to be neg

Gov IRELAND, in his message, made
n strong point in support of Texas
right to Greer county, when, after re-
citing the useless expense of the re-
cent commission, he avs:
Under the treaty between the
United States and Texas, in 1888, it is
agreed that each government shall
own, possess and enjoy its TERRITORY n
heretofore claimed or possessed and
over which l. has exercised jurisdic-
ton, until boundary is agreed upon
between the two governments. The
proof being overwhelming, with
nothing TO ;he CONTRARY, that Texas
has from time almost immemorial cx-
erciscd ownership Over the territory.
she is, under the treaty just spoken
entitled TO Greer county so long as an
agreement to the contrary is moi
reached. While on this subject it may
be proper TO state that Greer county
was organized as of the county
municipalities of Texas on the 10th
day of July, 1886.

Mr.. PAIGE, of East Texas, has in
troduced bill in the legislature which
should be enacted, providing for more
efficient assessment and collection Of
taxes. This is very loosely con-
Quoted and unjustly discriminating
department of the public service
There are men who conscientiously
render their property for taxation at
so to 100 cents OH the dollar. and there
are many Others, who conscientious,y
too, perhaps, render theirs at any
where from 20 to 40 per cent of its
value--as low as the incapable or I'M
just assessor will receive ii. The
fault f this, however, is not so much
in the law rs il is with the people, who
in electing assessors are governed by
their sympathies for some unfortunate
cripple or otherwise worthy hut in
capable man, rather than the clear
business judgment which should in
Auence them in the selection Of public
officials.

SOME FUN, BUT MORE BUSINESS.

There are many painful efforts at pok-
ing fun at Wichita's boom and the EAGLE S
wind. A hundred OF more papers are it,
advertantly advertising the EAGLE and
Wichita every week We found a dozen
or more diapers among our exchanges yes
terday, including two Topeka and one
Kansas City paper, and one St. Joe paper,
thus devoting themselves to the Magical
Mascot and the EAGLE Does itnever strike
these gentlemen that there must be some
thing else than wind back of the Peerless
Princess and her paper, when the fact is
known that Wichita's bank clearings are
the only ones that appear in the CONNER
cial reports from the entire state of Kansas.
Bradstreet, the Boston Post and Dunn u
Co.. don't pay for and publish wind. The
truth is, Wichita for several months has led
several cities Of the country in the amount
Of her clearings. She has the only institu-
ton Of the kind in the state, no other city's
business warranting clearing house.
Wichita does more business in one day
than some Of her would be or pretended
rivals, does in a month. The clearings for
the past week as published yesterday morn
ing were upward Of 81, ECO, 10000, and the
week before 100000 more than that.
There is not much wind in all this.
